Absolutely not "strong" and realistically not even "mixed," because beyond Gaisin and Selsky this is very, very much Russia A, as we've always said this tournament is, as we've always been told we can't call ourselves. Could conceivably finish anywhere in tournament position (likely lower than higher - it's off-season for a start), but very happy with this squad. As when Georgia started doing this - rankings may very well suffer, but we'll have a much deeper talent pool because of it (eventually).
